Blogging has taken the back burner for awhile over here... and it will probably continue to do so. I think I am working on getting into that nesting stage and am craming in all these little projects that I wanted to get done before the baby. So Makenzie's nap times (my blogging time) have been working on these projects, getting some chores done around the house, or just resting. IF I had a lap top I could rest and blog at the same time :-) But we don't!
A few weekends ago we ventured out to go see the butterfly exhibit at the Frederick Meijer Garden's! We had been wanting to do that for awhile but were waiting for some nice weather so we could do the outdoor activities as well. Unfortunately, Mother Nature isn't cooperating too well this spring and we headed out in the snow. I was kind of worried that it wouldn't take us long to go thru there and it may be a wasted trip, but it turned out great!!

| Can you find the two in here? |

Makenzie had a great time spending time looking for the caterpillers and watching them wiggle around. Then we headed into the room with the butterflies and whew! She was in awe! You can't touch them and she so desperately wanted to chase after them and catch them. We were actually there for quite a bit and had a great time.

They had butterflies hatching too! We watched a butterfly come out of it's cocoon!
When we were done we had a little picnic lunch in the truck and then headed back home... in the snow...
